Busy weekend

I must be in a cleaning mood today cause I started wiping down windows, wiping out the refrigerator and even shampooed both dogs. Luckily the puppies don't mind being washed....well Poncho did "escape" across the counter top while full of suds - what a mess!

We are having a busy weekend. The big business in July is finished although according to our records this week is suppose to the the biggest of the season! Why? I have no idea, but it shows it will be bigger than 4th of July. We'll see.

Another way we know we are on the down side of the season is that Stubby, Barbara, Charlie and Dawna are leaving tomorrow. That is a sure sign the season is wanning. They have been here since late May and are going back to Oklahoma City - Dawna to drive school bus and the others to care for grandkids after school.

So tonight we are all going out for dinner along with our camphosts, Rudene and Wales, and our good friends, Rich and Terri. We've made reservations at Blue Creek Lodge half way between South Fork and Creede. They have good, old-fashion meals like meatloaf, beef stew, chicken fried steaks along with homemade pies....Yummo-o-o-o can't wait.

But before that we will have our weekly Sunday potluck with all our camphosts. We have a lot of wood still, so we will have a campfire this afternoon as well as tonight after dinner. I made a Jambalaya with sausage and a Gumbo with chicken. . . used mixes I bought while in Louisiana last spring - they came out pretty darn good!!! Gumbo doesn't beat out what we ate at Guy's Gumbo Shack in Fairhope, Alabama, or at Coop's in New Orleans, but it is pretty tasty, nonetheless.

Wow, just saw a big buck walk through our campsite, just behind our outside table!!!! Couldn't get to the camera in time, but here is a photo I took last year in this same campground. Well, Jim just got back from his restroom cleaning so I best sign off for now and get him some breakfast. Remember - you are loved!!!
